Write down your initial reactions from each video. How do you think these events affected the children's lives? by William Brink https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3 en-us 2017-11-30 23:11:39 UTC 2026-01-24 18:59:54 UTC hello@padlet.com Shelbi slwebb2017 https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214680906 My initial reaction to the first video was that stuff like that only happens in movies. Then I was really surprised when the kid brought out a gun. 
The second video was sad. I do not think any person, but especially a child, should have to live in a place where they do not feel safe. 
The last video seemed to showcase that kids can be mean. 
I think all of these events could play a huge role in a person's mental health and well-being. ]]> 2017-12-09 04:36:51 UTC https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214680906 Nicole K https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214861325 #1 - Stereotypical event that cameras capture and show on the TV all the time. Happens in both the movies and real life so it was not surprising in a real way.
#2 - Not everyone can afford to live in a place they enjoy to the fullest. Having to live in places such as the one shown is not exactly an unusual thing.
#3 - Children will be children, and they happen to be rude and mean. ]]> 2017-12-10 22:01:52 UTC https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214861325 Megan Santin mdsantin https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214867846 1. It feels like this child had no choice but to engage in this fight, as the other boy was enticing and challenging him, but it is upsetting and not right that children so young have access to weapons.
2. It is very sad that this family, with many young children, were so exposed and used to such violence. 
3. Children will tease and bully each other, this does not make it right, but it happens. However, after watching the previous videos it feels as if this comment could be related to a deeper problem or rivalry. ]]> 2017-12-10 23:25:02 UTC https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214867846 Scott Kelsey https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214868683 1.  While the events that transpired were highly unfortunate, a wiser person would have just kept walking.  Don't let your mouth get you into a situation you can't handle.  
2.  Children that are exposed to stuff like this at such an early age will have a tremendously difficult time overcoming it psychologically.
3. The teacher's response to this blatant bully was nowhere near adequate enough.]]> 2017-12-10 23:38:01 UTC https://padlet.com/wmbrink/w35vwkzdj1q3/wish/214868683
